Yet another piece that I hate to let go, but am selling because it's too large. If you have a BBJ sashiko jacket in size 3 and want to size up, PLEASE SEND ME A MESSAGE. I'd love to trade.

This isn't the most recent iteration of the hunting jacket, so I think it's not the super heavy sashiko. A beautiful and amazing jacket nevertheless, but slightly big on me.

I got it new somewhat recently (even though it's an older model) and have worn it for maybe 2.5 months of semi-regular wear. It has very subtle fading and some amazing honeycombs beginning to set in around the sleeves. Plus side of it all is that most of its crocking (tendency to rub indigo onto other things) is gone. Be warned that I said most, not ALL.

Random cool details:
  • The sashiko is very multi-color in a way that the two other models of BBJ sashiko haven't been.
  • Hunting pockets in the front and in the bag
  • Tons of pockets lining the bottom of the inside

The measurements will make the jacket look huge, but something about the way the shoulders are cut makes them seem less big than you'd expect on my M-L frame given the seemingly huge number.
  • Shoulders (across the back): 20"
  • Chest (pit to pit): 23"
  • Length (from bottom of collar): 29"

Price includes shipping + tracking in the US. Would prefer not to ship international. Insurance will be extra.
